Baby slow down
The end is not as fun as the start
Please stay a child somewhere in your heart

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
And I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it

Some things you shouldn't get too good at
Like smiling, crying and celebrity
Some people got way too much confidence baby

I'll give you everything you want
Except the thing that you want
You are the first one of your kind

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want the lot of what you got
And I want nothing that you're not

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it, no
And you'll never be alone
Come on now show your soul
You've been keeping your love under control

Everywhere you go you shout it
You don't have to be shy about it
Everywhere you go you shout it
Oh my my

And you feel like no-one before
You steal right under my door
I kneel 'cause I want you some more
I want you some more, I want you some more...

Faz hoje 150 anos que o Darwin publicou a sua "Origem das Espécies". Acharam que o senhor era louco... hoje dedico-lhe as minhas simpatias :)

Smile

Nat King Cole

Smile though your heart is aching
Smile even though it's breaking
When there are clouds in the sky, you'll get by
If you smile through your fear and sorrow
Smile and maybe tomorrow
You'll see the sun come shining through for you

Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

That's the time you must keep on trying
Smile, what's the use of crying?
You'll find that life is still worthwhile
If you just smile

Estava à procura de uma música animada,sobre sorrir ou sobre o sorriso. Encontrei esta e apaixonei-me! Não é a mais animada das músicas, mas é animadora. E é linda!

Tonto

Xutos & Pontapés

Eu senti-me um pouco
Tonto
Sem saber o que fazer
Talvez fosse a tua
Imagem
Talvez fosse por
Querer

Ao certo abriste-me a
Porta
Mas eu não queria entrar
Só queria uma miragem
Só queria naufragar

Faz tanto tempo
Tanto tempo
Faz tanto tempo
E eu não esqueci

E tu chegaste tão perto
Que te apertei no meu peito
Já não era uma miragem
Era a serio eras Tu
Era a serio eras Tu

Faz tanto tempo
Tanto tempo
Faz tanto tempo
E eu não esqueci
Era a serio eras Tu
Era a serio eras Tu

Uma música fabulosa. Quem é que nunca sentiu essa tontura de vontade, de desejo, de encanto? Quem não a quer sentir... :) É tão bom!

Agarra-me

Pedro Abrunhosa

"Onde estiveres, eu estou
Onde tu fores, eu vou
Se tu quiseres assim
Meu corpo é o teu mundo
E um beijo um segundo
És parte de mim

Para onde olhares, eu corro
Se me faltares, eu morro
Quando vieres, distante
Soltam-se amarras
E tocam guitarras
Por ti, como dantes

Agarra-me esta noite
Sente o tempo que eu perdi (mmmmm)
Agarra-me esta noite
Que amanhã não estou aqui

Agarra-me esta noite
Sente o tempo que eu perdi (mmmmm)
Agarra-me esta noite
Que amanhã não estou aqui"


À procura de outra música reencontei esta. Uma das músicas de desejo, de ardor, de urgência mais intensas. Adoro!
Apetece ter uma história assim. ;)

Beijo

Pedro Abrunhosa

Não posso deixar que te leve
O castigo da ausência,
Vou ficar a esperar
E vais ver-me lutar
Para que esse mar não nos vença.
Não posso pensar que esta noite
Adormeço sozinho,
Vou ficar a escrever,
E talvez vá vencer
O teu longo caminho.

Quero que saibas
Que sem ti não há lua,
Nem as árvores crescem,
Ou as mãos amanhecem
Entre as sombras da rua.

Leva os meus braços,
Esconde-te em mim,
Que a dor do silêncio X 2
Contigo eu venço
Num beijo assim.

Não posso deixar de sentir-te
Na memória das mãos,
Vou ficar a despir-te,
E talvez ouça rir-te
Nas paredes, no chão.
Não posso mentir que as lágrimas
São saudades do beijo,
Vou ficar mais despido
Que um corpo vencido,
Perdido em desejo.

Quero que saibas
Que sem ti não há lua,
Nem as árvores crescem,
Ou as mãos amanhecem
Entre as sombras da rua.

Leva os meus braços,
Esconde-te em mim,
Que a dor do silêncio X 2
Contigo eu venço
Num beijo assim.

Canção de dor e abandono. Lindíssima...

Hey Jude

Beatles

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad

Take a sad song and make it better

Remember to let her into your heart

Then you can start to make it better

Hey, Jude, don't be afraid

You were made to go out and get her

The minute you let her under your skin

Then you begin to make it better.

And any time you feel the pain, hey, Jude, refrain

Don't carry the world upon your shoulders

Well don't you know that its a fool who plays it coo

By making his world a little colder

Hey, Jude! Don't let her down

You have found her, now go and get her

Remember, to let her into your heart

Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey, Jude, begin

You're waiting for someone to perform with

And don't you know that it's just you, hey, Jude,

You'll do, the movement you need is on your shoulder

Hey, Jude, don't make it bad

Take a sad song and make it better

Remember to let her into your heart

Then you can start to make it better


Soube-me tão bem ouvir esta música hoje! Passem os anos que passarem será sempre uma canção do caraças! LINDA

Starlight

Muse

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from my memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

The starlight
I will be chasing your starlight
Until the end of my life
I don't know if it's worth it anymore

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms

My life
You electrify my life
Let's conspire to re-ignite
All the souls that would die just to feel alive

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away, never fade away

Our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations
And our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms

Far away
This ship is taking me far away
Far away from the memories
Of the people who care if I live or die

I'll never let you go
If you promise not to fade away, never fade away

And our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations, yeah
Our hopes and expectations
Black holes & revelations

Hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold you in my arms
I just wanted to hold

Eu nunca ouvia Muse, mas agora, sem nada que o justifique, gosto muito desta música!

Love Will Tear Us Apart

Joy Division

When the routine bites hard
and ambitions are low
And the resentment rides high
but emotions won't grow
And we're changing our ways,
taking different roads
Then love, love will tear us apart again

Why is the bedroom so cold
Turned away on your side?
Is my timing that flawed,
our respect run so dry?
Yet there's still this appeal
That we've kept through our lives
Love, love will tear us apart again

Do you cry out in your sleep
All my failings exposed
Get a taste in my mouth
As desperation takes hold
Is it something so good
Just can't function no more?
When love, love will tear us apart again

O Facebook diz que esta é música que melhor me representa no momento!

November Rain

Guns'n'Roses

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain
We've been through this
Such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain
Yeahh..
But lovers always come
And lovers always go
And no one's really sure
Who's lettin' go today
Walking away
If we could take the time
To lay it on the line
I could rest my head
Just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me
Then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin'
In the cold November rain

Do you need some time
On your own
Do you need some time
All alone
Everybody needs some time
On their own
Don't you know you need some time
All alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you

Sometimes I need some time
On my own
Sometimes I need some time
All alone
Everybody needs some time
On their own
Don't you know you need some time
All alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain
I know that you can love me
When there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness
We still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever
Even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you
Need somebody
Don't ya think that you
Need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you
Need somebody
Don't ya think that you
Need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you
Need somebody
Don't ya think that you
Need someone
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you
Need somebody
Don't ya think that you
Need someone
Everybody needs somebody

Esta música é lindíssima! Das minhas preferidas!

Mas... já viram que tempinho está? November Rain e nada meiga!

Estrela da Tarde

Carlos do Carmo

Era a tarde mais longa de todas as tardes
Que me acontecia
Eu esperava por ti, tu não vinhas
Tardavas e eu entardecia
Era tarde, tão tarde, que a boca,
Tardando-lhe o beijo, mordia
Quando à boca da noite surgiste
Na tarde tal rosa tardia
Quando nós nos olhamos tardamos no beijo
Que a boca pedia
E na tarde ficamos unidos ardendo na luz
Que morria
Em nós dois nessa tarde em que tanto
Tardaste o sol amanhecia
Era tarde demais para haver outra noite,
Para haver outro dia.
(Refrão)
Meu amor, meu amor
Minha estrela da tarde
Que o luar te amanheça e o meu corpo te guarde.
Meu amor, meu amor
Eu não tenho a certeza
Se tu és a alegria ou se és a tristeza.
Meu amor, meu amor
Eu não tenho a certeza.

Foi a noite mais bela de todas as noites
Que me aconteceram
Dos noturnos silêncios que à noite
De aromas e beijos se encheram
Foi a noite em que os nossos dois
Corpos cansados não adormeceram
E da estrada mais linda da noite uma festa de fogo fizeram.

Foram noites e noites que numa só noite
Nos aconteceram
Era o dia da noite de todas as noites
Que nos precederam
Era a noite mais clara daqueles
Que à noite amando se deram
E entre os braços da noite de tanto
Se amarem, vivendo morreram.

(Refrão)

Eu não sei, meu amor, se o que digo
É ternura, se é riso, se é pranto
É por ti que adormeço e acordo
E acordado recordo no canto
Essa tarde em que tarde surgiste
Dum triste e profundo recanto
Essa noite em que cedo nasceste despida
De mágoa e de espanto.
Meu amor, nunca é tarde nem cedo
Para quem se quer tanto!



Este é um dos poemas mais bonitos da música portuguesa.
Hoje deu-me vontade de a ouvir.
Sinto falta do arrebatamento...

Angie

Rolling Stones

Angie, Angie
When will those clouds all disappear?
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here?
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried
Angie, You're beautiful
But ain't it time we said goodbye
Angie, I still love you
Remember all those nights we cried?
All the dreams we held so close
Seemed to all go up in smoke
Let me whisper in your ear
Angie, Angie
Where will it lead us from here?
Angie, don't you weep
All your kisses still taste sweet
I hate that sadness in your eyes
But Angie, Angie
Ain't it time we said goodbye?
With no loving in our souls
And no money in our coats
You can't say we're satisfied
But Angie, I still love you, baby
Everywhere I look I see your eyes
There ain't a woman that comes close to you
Come on baby dry your eyes
But Angie, Ain't it...
Ain't it good to be alive?
Angie, Angie
You can't say we never tried

Um música magnífica e intemporal. Passou hoje mn rádio. Já tinha saudades de a ouvir.

Wind of Change

scorpions-wind of change
Enviado por dream_ks.

Scorpions

I follow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change
An August summer night
Soldiers passing by
Listening to the wind of change

The world closing in
Did you ever think
That we could be so close,like brothers
The future's in the air
I can feel it everywhere
Blowing with the wind of change

Chorus:
Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Walking down the street
Distant memories
Are buried in the past forever

I fallow the Moskva
Down to Gorky Park
Listening to the wind of change

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

The wind of change blows straight
Into the face of time
Like a stormwind that will ring
The freedom bell for peace of mind
Let your balalaika sing
What my guitar wants to say

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow share their dreams
With you and me

Take me to the magic of the moment
On a glory night
Where the children of tomorrow dream away
In the wind of change

Faz hoje 20 anos que caíu o muro de Berlim. Lembro-me disso ter acontecido, de ver na tv, do entusiasmo, mas de não entender o que significava a queda do muro, nem se quer entender para que servia o muro.
Esta música foi escrita para celebrar a queda do muro. E a liberdade.

The Reason

Hoobastank

I'm not a perfect person
There's many things I wish I didn't do
But I continue learning
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I'm sorry that I hurt you
It's something I must live with every day
And all the pain I put you through
I wish that I could take it all away
And be the one who catches all your tears
That's why I need you to hear

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

And the reason is you
And the reason is you
And the reason is you

I'm not a perfect person
I never meant to do those things to you
And so I have to say before I go
That I just want you to know

I've found a reason for me
To change who I used to be
A reason to start over new
And the reason is you

I've found a reason to show
A side of me you didn't know
A reason for all that I do
And the reason is you


Esta música acompanhou-me durante muito tempo e até pensava que já a tinha incluido aqui, mas afinal não! Como não podia faltar, aqui está! "And the reason is you"

Deep Blue

Rodrigo Leão
(Voz - Sónia Tavares)

Find a way and clear my soul
Driving out to get my goal

God knows I cannot stand
It's time to say goodbye

You don't know, you should have known
the pain I feel inside

So, I was dreaming of you
I was falling with you
and broke my heart

So, I was falling for you
I was dreaming with you
and broke my heart

Find a way and clear my soul
Driving out to get my goal

You don't know, you should've known
the pain I feel inside

God knows I cannot stand
It's time to say goodbye

Find a way to ease my breath
on and on to fill my chest

I can't stay, I cannot stay
cause only tears remain

I can't hide, I cannot fight
and play this crying game

So, I was dreaming of you
I was falling with you
and broke my heart

Esta música é tão bonita!
Nas músicas do Rodrigo Leão a dor é demonstrada de forma tão íntima, tão delicada, mas ao mesmo tempo tão absoluta. Sublime.

Smother Me

The Used

Let me be the one who calls you baby
All the time
Surely you can take some comfort
Knowing that you're mine
Just hold me tight, lay by my side
and let me be the one who calls you
Baby all the time

I found my place in the world
Could stare at your face for the rest of
my days
Now I can breathe, turn my insides out
and Smother me
Warm and alive I'm all over you
would you smother me?

Let me be the one who never leaves
You all alone
I hold my breath and lose the feeling
That I'm on my own
Hold me too tight stay by my side
and let me be the one who calls you
Baby all the time

I found my place in the world
Could stare at your face for the rest of
my days
Now I can breathe, turn my insides out
and Smother me
Warm and alive I'm all over you
would you smother me?

When I'm alone time goes so slow
I need you here with me
and how my mistakes have made
Your heart break
Still I need you here with me
Baby I'm here

Now I can breathe, turn my insides out
and Smother me
Warm and alive I'm all over you
would you smother me?

Now I can breathe, turn my insides out
and Smother me
Warm and alive I'm all over you
would you smother me?

Let me be the one who calls you baby
All the time

Let me be the one who calls you baby
All the time

Let me be the one who calls you baby
All the time

Let me be the one who calls you baby
The one who calls you baby

Há músicas que me são mostradas e que eu gosto, outras nem tanto.
Esta música quando me foi dada apaixonou-me.
É muito bonita e dá vontade de ouvir, e ouvir e ouvir...
Faz pensar e coisa boas... canções de embalar e abraços que nos envolvem...

You'll Follow Me Down

Skunk Anansie

survived, tonight
i may be going down
cos everything goes round too
tight, tonight
and as you watch me crawl
you stand for more

and your panic stricken
blood will thicken up, tonight

cos i don't want you
to forgive me
you'll follow me down
you'll follow me down
you'll follow me down

survive, tonight
i see your head's exposed
so we shall kill
constructive might
s'right
as your emotions fool you
my strong will rule

i won't feel restraint
watching you close sense down
i can't compensate
that's more than
i've got to give

E já agora ouve-se mais esta que eu também gosto.

Secretly

Skunk Anansie

I've been biding my time
Been so subtly kind
I've got to think so selfishly
'Cos you're the face inside of me

I've been biding my days
You see
Evidently it pays
I've been a friend with unbiased views
Then secretly lust after you

So now you feel rusty you're bored and bemused
You wanna do someone else
So you should be by yourself
Instead of here with me
Secretly

Trying hard to think pure
Bloody hard when i'm raw
You're talking out so sexually
About boys and girls
And your friggin' dreams

So now you feel lusty you're hot and confused
You wanna do someone else
So you should be by yourself
Instead of here with me
Secretly

So now you've been busted
You're caught feeling used
You had to do, someone else
You should have been by yourself
You had to do, someone else

You should have been by yourself
Instead of here with me
Secretly, secretly

Ontem gostava de ter estado a ver estes senhores. Ao que parece esta música foi um dos momentos altos da noite...

The Storm

Yanni

Fabuloso! Brilhante! E outros adjectivos afins! ;)
(Obrigada pelo vídeo sr Renato!)

Devolva-me

Adriana Calcanhotto

Rasgue as minhas cartas
E não me procure mais
Assim será melhor
Meu bem!
O retrato que eu te dei
Se ainda tens
Não sei!
Mas se tiver
Devolva-me!
Deixe-me sozinho
Porque assim
Eu viverei em paz
Quero que sejas bem feliz
Junto do seu novo rapaz...

Rasgue as minhas cartas
E não me procure mais
Assim vai ser melhor
Meu bem!
O retrato que eu te dei
Se ainda tens
Não sei!
Mas se tiver
Devolva-me!
O retrato que eu te dei
Se ainda tens
Não sei!
Mas se tiver
Devolva-me!
Devolva-me!
Devolva-me!

Esta música tem tantas lágrimas, tanta dor, tanto amor...

Um Trolha d'Areosa

Rui Veloso

Arménio, era um trolha d'Areosa
Que tinha um par de olhinhos azuis
Que quando me fixavam no baile
Me punham indefesa e tão nervosa

Arménio, tenho nas minhas gavetas
Aerogramas cheios de erros de ortografia
Perfumados entre as minhas meias pretas
Aquelas que te punham em estado de euforia

Arménio, fui tua madrinha de guerra
Rezei por ti longas novenas sem fim
Para voltares inteirinho e sem mazelas
Mas ficaste por lá, tão perdido no capim

Arménio, quantos sonhos e planos
Prometeste que me levavas a Lisbo-o-o-o-o-o-a
Em Junho, no dia dos meus anos,
Bem sabes que a memória é um atributo dos gémeos

Os Mingos & Samurais foram a banda sonora de hoje. Esta é uma das grandes músicas de um dos melhores discos portugueses de sempre. Para mim é, sem dúvida, dos mais marcantes.
